How to use a Trinity, but using TyTN settings for your Service Provider

Hi all
I use a Trinity WM6 (bepe's rom) and I would like to use the WAP Portal of my Service Provider (Orange Switzerland). I can access the portal, but it's only a text based browsing. All WM5 Orange branded phones or Nokia phones can access the portal with picutres, nice colors and watch Live TV.
As my Trinity is not Orange branded (they don't even sell it here in Switzerland) I can't access the colored portal and can't watch TV
I tried changing some registry settings like:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Internet Settings\ 5.0\ User Agent\Default -> Wert: Mozilla/4.0
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Internet Settings\ 5.0\ User Agent\Post Platform -> PPC; 240x320; SPV M3100; OpVer 12.16.5.111
As you can imagine, Orange ignores these settings and still recognizes, that I use a Trinity and not a SPV M3100 (HTC TyTN).
Does somebody knows, what I could do to "pretend" that I'm surfing on their WAP Portal with a SPV M3100?
Any help and hint is very appreciated!
Cheers
Jarvis

I <think> it is something to do with a special configuration file within the Orange ROMs. Updating the ROM removes this file, so preventing access to OW
There have been a lot of posts here and on Modaco about trying to access Orange World (the 'enhanced' WAP site), but I'm not sure if anyone found the fix.

Hi Neil
I don't know if this might be the reason. All Nokia and SE phones (unbranded) can access the enhanced wap portal. On an older WM5 version you could do the registry change and that worked out to access OW.

I've had better luck in
HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer\User Agent
The key to change is Custom
Try using some values from other similar devices on your network

Vodafone Live and Mobile TV finally working in the UK

In case anyone else in the UK has been trying and struggling as much as I have to get Vodafone Live! and Mobile TV working on their WM6 Hermes, I thought I'd post my slightly modded browser.dll file which finally got me up and running and watching the cricket on Sky Sports 1 yesterday (and no, I shouldn't have bothered!).
It's just been hex edited to change the User Agent String to that of a Nokia N95 (my current spare phone, which happily has a QVGA screen for the sake of compatibility) - all you should need to do is copy the .dll to the \Windows folder on your device, overwrite the original, and soft reset.
Make sure you're connected using the "Vodafone Live!" or "Contract WAP" settings (not "Vodafone Internet" or "Contract Web"), and away you go. You can check at http://www.useragentstring.com to make sure the change has worked before whizzing over to http://live.vodafone.co.uk to see the full colour, mobile tv containing version of Live!
Oh, and make sure that your Streaming Video options are set to use "Vodafone Live!" or "Contract WAP" to connect too.
I'm using Schaps 3.60 ROM by the way - although I doubt if that makes much difference. Let me know if it works for you...

Cannot get it to work on my TyTN II.
Keep getting the message:" iexplore cannot be opened. It has no trusted certificate or one of the components is missing. etc.."
Is this browser.dll from WM6?
Can someone please post a signed one?
I really would like to use Vodafone Live on my TyTN II

Not working on my v1605 either
I get the same error as johnkorver "The file 'iexplore' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file". I'm using the latest official vodafone WM5 ROM - thought I'd try this before updating tonight - so it might be an issue with that, if this is taken from WM6.

Try installing the SDK certs cab file - sounds like it could be that...
Smiffy.

Can you use any SDKCerts cab?
... bit of a noob - I've searched around the forum and Wiki, managed to find and install a SDKCerts cab file (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326449&highlight=SDK+certs+cab+file and also tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316471&highlight=SDKCerts+cab) but no luck, still same error message... any suggestions for where else I might need to look or indeed anything else I could try?

It actually worked and now I am able to see the vodafone home page.
I used the following registry change:
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies" change the value of "0000101a" to "1"
The SDK certs cab file doesn't seem to work on WM6 (at least it didn't on my TyTN II).
However when I click on a link on the homepage (wsp.live.vodafone.com) It says that I am not allowed to see this content.
The http version (http://live.vodafone.com) doesn't connect at all.
I checked the userstring and it shows nokia N95. (www.useragentstring.com)
Cannot see what I am doing wrong.
I use the settings for the HTC P4350 on the dutch Vodafone website (see below)

Any more settings to change?
Still not winning with this... now that I've upgraded to WM6 (black) I am at least able to load that updated browser.dll file to my windows folder, and have checked that it's connecting using Vodafone Live (via exceptions list, and it changes connections from my standard) but still nada. Useragentstring is finding it as "Mozilla/5.0 (SymbianOS/9.2; I; Series60/3.1 NokiaN95/10.0.010)" which I believe is right. I've browsed through quite a lot of other sites and followed their advice but it keeps getting stuck on "locating" and then just comes up with "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later."
Any advice please? Pulling my hair out here, and I don't have enough left as it is...

I'm not on Vodafone so I can't be sure but, when I plug my phone into my machine at work, it adds a proxy to my connection for some reason - could this be the same thing for you?
Smiffy.

Hmmm, good thought but doesn't appear to be it - I'm pretty sure the phone is picking the connection settings I've put in there and I don't have any proxy settings on my work laptop for it to pick out. Very odd.

Thanks very much for this, it worked like a treat. The one thing that I did have to do before I could see the Vodafone live! homepage was enter a "wsp://" at the front, ie:
wsp://live.vodafone.com
If I just did a plain "http://" at the start it didn't work.
It's incredible that Vodafone don't support Pocket IE for live! - especially on phones that they sell!

VPA c GPS with Vodafone live! browser.dll Probs

Hello trinity-users!
I've tried to get my "VPA compact GPS" with WM6 working for "Vodafone live!" a lot of times.
I used differnet User-Agent-Strings like:
Vodafone/1.0./HTC_MERCURY/2.04.162.1/Mozilla/4.0
Vodafone/1.0/HTC_v1510/1.23.163.2/Mozilla/4.0
and I tried a modiefied browser.dll from a Vodafone branded Palm 750v and the browser.dlls from this Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305008
Only with the edited browser.dll for palm 750v I get into the Vodafone live! portal, but It won't load correctly and there are no HSDPA-contents shown! The User-Agent-Strings don't really change something...
I want to get this $h*t running on my trinity. I hope someone can help me...

My Device:
VPA compact GPS (Trinity of Vodafone Germany)
bepes WM6 ROM GER 0.79 light VC

Hi Brianius,
You were not clear on which browser.dll file you are using. Did you simply download one of the attached files in the mentioned thread, or did you extract the file from your rom, make the adjustments, and then overwrite the file on your phone?
It would be useful if browsed to http://www.useragentstring.com/ on your trinity and pasted the value for "Your User Agent String:" in this thread...

Hi jamesbest, thanks for your answer!
I used an edited one from a german board. They used one of ZAKv3 Image and changed the User Agent String to the Palm 750v.
If I take this browser.dll : Palm750/v000 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile %d.%d)
Today I deleted the UAS from the dll and now I can change it in the registry.
But always only black letters without pictures on Vodafone live!
Maybe I should use bepes 0.79 browser.dll, but I don't know to extract it from the Windows.nb file.
My current UAS: Vodafone/1.0./HTC_MERCURY/2.04.162.1/Mozilla/4.0
edit: I tried other edited browser.dlls from schaps and AKUs ROMs

I think there are two problems from your response. 1) you may be using an incompatible browser.dll file. 2) the user agent string is not being recognised by vodafone's site.
1)
So if I have understood correctly, you are using a browser.dll file you downloaded from a website - and this file may not correspond to the one that originally came with your rom? I would recommend, downloading the rom you have currently installed on your phone and editing that browser.dll file. I dont know if there is a new easier way to get at the file, but I do the following:
download nbhextract: here
download imgfs_tools_182: here
download the rom you currently have flashed to your phone
locate the file RUU_signed.nbh (or similarly named - its the biggest file)
"nbhextract RUU_signed.nbh" - creates an OS.nb file (might be named slightly differently)
"nbsplit -hermes OS.nb" - creates OS.nb.extra and OS.nbh.payload. Since this is the trinity forum I have used the -hermes option. I am not sure which flag to use for Palm750v. An appropriate search of the Palm section might help here...
"ImgFsFromNb OS.nb.payload imgfs.bin" - creates imgfs.bin
"ImgfsToDump imgfs.bin" - extracts rom files to dump directory
Within the dump directory should be another directory called "browser.dll". In this directory will be the browser.dll file.
Then you can modify the browser.dll file as described here, and copy it back to your phone. I find the easiest way to copy the file over is to make a CAB installer that will copy and overwrite the file to your \Windows directory (using wince cab manager or a similar program). I dont think you can simply copy the file using activesync.
2)
Once you have a working browser.dll file, you may want to try different user-agent strings. It is best to change the UA string to a simulate a phone model that can definitely access vodafone life (see vodafone's website for a list of supported phones). On my trinity I use the Nokia 6233 UA string. I have made a cab of this file and attached it to this thread. To test each UA string is correct, go to http://www.useragentstring.com/ and double-check the string appears as it should.

THX!!!
Thanks a lot jamesbest!
I will try it today and give response if it works!

My solution
Hello brianius and all other users.
I had the same problem for a long time, esp. with WM6.
So here is my solution:
You need a regeditor.
Go to :
HKLM/Security/Internet Explorer/User Agent
there you have to delete everything, instead of the entry CustomBase.
The Data for it have to be: Vodafone/1.0/HTC_MERCURY/2.04.162.1
With these settings almost everything is working fine for me.
Working stuff:
- Live! Portal, coulored, with pictures
- Live Streams aka LiveTV
Not working
- Downloading music, esp. ringtones
So for further questions, please ask me.
I try to help you.
If you will find a better User Agent string, esp. one with ringtone support. Please post it here

Hey, I had a lot of things to do, but today I have handled to get the browser.dll from bepes ROM.
So I overwrote the User Agent String apart from the "%s" of the dll by 00s and now I can change the UAS in the registry "HKLM/Security/Internet Explorer/User Agent/Custom".
With the "Vodafone/1.0./HTC_MERCURY/2.04.162.1/Mozilla/4.0"String Vodafone live doesn't work.
I want to have Vodafone live with HSDPA-content like "broadband Mobile TV".
Does anybody know a UAS (by Vodafone!!!) of a HSDPA enabled phone?
"Vodafone/1.0./<Phone>/<Version>/Mozilla/4.0"
I wonder why the original String by Vodafone of the Trinity, doesn't work with my WM6 ROM! How they can distinguish between the ROMS?
The original UAS: "Vodafone/1.0/HTC_v1510/1.23.163.2" -> I get only black letters with WM6 by bepe!
Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks a lot!
PS: Sorry posted this first in the wrong Thread... =)
edit: I'm trying with pieplus, now... -> Doesn't change the UAS!
edit2: Interesting site: http://www.seehowitruns.org/pages/javascript_properties.php?choice=604&prop=2

WORKS!!!
YEEEHAAAA!!!
This String: "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 6.8) Vodafone/1.0/HTC_v1510/1.23.164.7" WORKS!!!
I've putted it into the Registry (HKLM/Securitiy/InternetExplorer/User Agent/Custom) and Vodafone live is coloured!!!
But there is still no HSDPA content. Only normal UMTS mobiletv! Maybe I'll find a better String....
@arndti: Ringtones are working,too!
Now I have only to fix my Stremplayer, which gives an errormessage "The file "rtsp://195.179.[...]" cannot be opened. Maybe because of an security certificate or one of its components couldn't be started...try to reinstall" ~translated from ger
BIG Thanks to jamesbest and arndti!!!

This string works almost fine for me.
I don't know what the HSDPA-content should be, i even never heared of it.
For me mobile tv is working, after I have changend the conection of the streaming player to Vodafone Live!.
But still I could not download any ringtones.

The VPA compact V is HSDPA enabled by Vodafone, so I will try this String later:
"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 7.6) Vodafone/1.0/HTC_Kaiser/1.56.165.5" -> works!

Yes, my problem was that TCPMP has changed the file associations and i deinstalled tcpmp. So there was a error message.
Now I changed to Stream Player and if I klick on a MobileTV link the Streamingplayer starts, but nothing happens... If I try to connect manually, the message: "Verbindung fehlgeschlagen" (~connection error) apperas!
edit: The Straming Player works now, but it stops buffering at 94%...
edit2: I've done all told in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1904190
...but still the Streaming Player stops at: 94-97%!

Okay now I played a bit in the registry strings: "HKLM/Software/HTC/Stream/..." and got it loading 100% now , but no video appears and after 1 sec Streaming Player crashes.
Can somebody help me?
I have checked the following things:
---------------------------------------
- installed the cab of this thread.
- overwritten StreamingPlayer-files in "/windows" with that from bepes 0.79 ROM (full)
- searched for missing dlls -> I already had all dlls.
- changed the User Agent String in "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Int ernet Settings\5.0\User Agent\" to the same like IE has. *
- tryed Streamingplayer.exe from this therad
- ...
---------------------------------------
*my String: "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 6.8) Vodafone/1.0/HTC_v1510/1.23.164.7"
I'm still trying to get it working by changing registry strings of StreamingPlayer...
Hope somebody has an idea...
--------------> OKAY: Fixed the Streaming Player (old Theme but works!) =)
Big Thanks for all your help!!!

BBConnect & Windows Mobile 6.1

I have spent 2 hours reading and searching through the net after a disappointing experience with CRC 6.1 and Blackberry Connect ... I have tried many versions, I do see success out there with Windows Mobile 6.1 but not with Hermes.

you could try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365604
there is a link in Matts signature which takes you over to another thread which contains a zip file containing OEM/SYS directories, in the OEM folder there is a version of BBConnect, not sure which one it is but would assume it will be for WM6 or later.
If you don't fancy having a go yourself I've just followed the destructions and cooked it into a base rom, you're welcome to have a try, can't guarantee it will work though as I haven't loaded it onto my device, the ROM is the same one I am using with BBConnect added in.

Try this:
1. Hard reset.
2. Change device ID, from Start -> Settings -> System -> About -> Device ID to HTC_TyTN
3. Install a registry editor, such as Resco (www.resco-net.com) or Total Commander (www.ghisler.com, I use 2.5 beta 3). Then edit:
"HKLM\System\Versions\AKU key", change whatever in there to .0.4.2
Note the . goes in front, it's not typo

does it work with BIS or only with BES because the BBC is only talking about BES
Thankx

mms on 6.1

im using a variant of windown mobile 6.1 that doesnt seem to have mms with the text messages option, is there a cab file that i can use to install mms

Device Update
U need Arcsoft MMS
i've uploaded the device update.
install the cab file and download the software u need..
u shud get a hold of HTC connection wizard which automatically configures your connection.. great application
and download arcsoftmms too.
but u have to configure the mms options in the messaging menu and choose the server.
the connection wizard might configured the server for you. or you have to create a new one manually according to your telco.

thank you!

no problem buddy.
just come back to update your status

im back lol, arcsoft mms is totally configured, but i only see an mms sending option, how exactly do i receive mmses?

go to your message box click on the menu and into MMS options.
go to the servers tab.
you should see your operator server there if u had the HTC connection wizard ran.
just set the settings to default.
if the settings isnt there, u'll have to configure the settings manually. try search for the operator settings on google by typing "operator name" mms server settings.
that shud help

Am I doing something wrong or is this Arcsoft MMS removed from the Device Update Database?
Where should we get it now?

is it? it should be there.
did u installl arcsoft mms in your device already? maybe u could try searching for the cab files.

is it? it should be there.
did u installl arcsoft mms in your device already? maybe u could try searching for the cab files.

I am sorry for my very late response. I still can't find the program in Device Update. I've tried to search for a .cab but this is like warez because normally it is baked into the ROM, I have a lite ROM now without MMS app. I don't think this is why MMS app is not listed because I have had a ROM before without MMS (at least I think), then MMS was listed in DU.
Kind of confusion to me.

I just checked and it is listed under system.

Getting more strange now:
Device Update:
Error loading catalog.
Check Internet Connectivity and try again
Nothing changed and wifi is working for all other progs.

So dont use it! if it dont works, is not the only way to get it... Btw the topic is mms on 6.1 no CRCDU issues.
Come on boys
use the search option upper right corner from XDA bar....
ARCSOFT MMS COMPOSSER...

Yes totally offtopic, I am sorry for that. The problem was client side by the way. I did a hardreset and internet is working correctly now. But...more strange: all of a sudden ArcSoft MMS Composer 4.2.8.1 is installed...must be something wrong with the original install...
Well...my case fixed. Other persons will manage with the search tags + Que PPC gave haha.
